BACKGROUND OF THE STUDYBackground: Accidental injuries are a major health problem throughout the United Kingdom. They are one of the most common causes of death in children over one year of age. The most severe injuries are associated with heat-related accidents and falls from a height. Older children are more likely to sustain fractures than younger counterparts. Younger children have a higher percentage of burns and scalds as well as poisoning and ingestion accidents. The largest number of accidents happens in the living/dining room However, the most serious accidents happen in the kitchen and on the stairs. Most happen between late afternoon and early evening, in the summer, during school holidays and at weekends Factors. Poor housing and overcrowded conditions lead to increased numbers of accidents those most at risk from a home accident are the 0-4years age group. Most of these accidents are preventable through increased awareness, improvements in the home environment and greater product safety. Children are the future of every country and all societies strive to ensure their health and safetyMethod: A quantitative evaluative approach using questionnaire on common accidents. Pre experimental one group pretest & posttest design was used. Convenient sampling technique was used to select 60 samples from the selected Anganwadies in Lucknow. The conceptual frame work of the present study was based on Karl Ludwig Von Bertlanffy’s General system theory. Initially researcher got permission for study from concern authorities. Pretest done followed by structured teaching program on common accidents for 50 min followed by 10 min session of question and answer. A posttest was conducted after 2 weeks of structured teaching program. The tools used for data collection, part 1: demographic variables, part 2: assessing knowledge on common accidents.Results: Employing descriptive and inferential statistics, the analysis of the data was done. Data Shows that over all pre-test mean score about knowledge of common accidents was 12.05 and SD 2.31 After structured teaching program the overall post-test mean was 22.62 and SD 2.40 and the paired ‘t’ test result shows that overall enhancement mean score is 12.05, SD2.31,and Paired ‘t ’test value is 31.17 significantat0.01level. The result of the chi-square presented indicate that there was significant association between post test knowledge score with demographic variables such as age evidenced that there was statistically association at p<0.05 level.Conclusion: The study concludes that the structured teaching program was very effective in providing knowledge regarding common accidents among mothers.
